Happy Hour with Jeff Sherman

Better Sign Shop Podcast

We're joined by Jeff Sherman for this special happy-hour episode. Be warned 🤣 – we're a little loose.
An old friend with an epic beard – Jeff Sherman has 20+ years of sign industry experience and 10+ years of running operations at a fairly large shop.
We discussed about shifting from vinyl to fab and electrical, safety protocols, managing growth and many other interesting topics.
